This is an 8* on MILWAUKEE

It was all set up to be a great weekend for Milwaukee as they were facing the team with the worst record in the league. But they lost 7-2 to the Pirates Friday night, a result which should not sit well with the Brewers. Fortunately for them, they are 8-4 off a loss this year while Pittsburgh is 0-4 off a win. The Pirates have been hammered in those four games too; giving up a total of 34 runs to the opposition. Be prepared to see them give up a lot more this evening as Derek Holland and his 8.26 ERA takes the mound. Holland gave up five home runs in his last start and the Pirates lost 11-5 to Detroit. Holland did face off with the Brewers in his first start of 2020 and while that ended up being an 8-6 Pittsburgh win (as +170 underdogs), he did not factor into the decision. Milwaukee will counter with Lindblom, who started opposite Holland in that 8-6 game last month. But since then, Lindblom has struck out a career-high eight batters in back to back starts. The Brewers are 8-2 their L10 games at PNC Park. A Pirates team that has scored just 85 runs in 22 games can’t be trusted to win two in a row. Play on MILWAUKEE
